Nicole Kidman promotes her new movie Rabbit Hole

Actress and now producer Nicole Kidman sits on the panel at the press conference promoting her new film “Rabbit Hole”, during the 2010 Toronto International Film Festival held at the Hyatt Regency in Toronto, Canada. The movie premiere was sold out and received a standing ovation at the end.

“Rabbit Hole” is a Tony Award-winning play by David Lindsay-Abaire, and examines a couple mourning the loss of a child after a hit-and-run accident. Kidman, who won an Academy Award in 2002 for her portrayal of English novelist Virginia Woolf in “The Hours,” literally sweated through a news conference at the Toronto film festival. She said: “The reason I’m wearing this jacket is because I’m sweating under here and I can’t take it off ’cause this shirt shows it”.

“I feel very exposed, very nervous,” she explained. “It’s a whole different ball game because it’s so personal when you’re in a film but you’re not responsible for the film.

Aaron Eckhart, best known for his role in “The Dark Knight”, co-stars with Kidman in the film directed by Director John Cameron Mitchell.

Blake Lively Gossip Girl In Blue Dress

Actress and model Blake Lively looked beautiful in a navy blue dress as she filmed an episode of Gossip Girl in New York yesterday. It seemed the 23-year-old pretty high heel shoes might have become a bit too much for her feet. In her breaks from filming, Lively swapped out the high heels for a pair of more comfortable flats.

Fans of the star’s fashionable image will have a bit of a shock later this month when the actress appears in the new Ben Affleck film “The Town”. The film centers on four thieves who are hunted on the streets of Boston by a determined FBI agent and a woman with the power to bring them all to their knees.

The actress recently talked about her film career. She told Marie Claire, “I want to take risks, I don’t wanna play it safe. I could probably make more money if I did more commercial projects. It would be nice to buy an apartment, but I’m 23 and I don’t need to yet.”

Renee Zellweger and Bradley Cooper go to Casa Del Mar Hotel

Actress Renee Zellweger and actor Bradley Cooper head to the Casa Del Mar Hotel in Los Angeles, after a night out on Friday, August 20. The following day, Brad went solo in some comfortable workout clothes to visit one of his friends in the Santa Monica area. The trailer for Bradley and Renee’s psychological thriller Case 39 was recently released.

Case 39 is a horror film directed by Christian Alvart that was released in some countries in year 2009. It has been comfirmed that the US release date has been moved to October 1, 2010. The film is about a social worker (Zellweger) who tries to help a young girl with abusive parents, but she discovers that the situation is more dangerous than she ever expected.

The Last Exorcism Movie goes viral using ChatRoulette

The social Webcam Chat service known as Chatroulette, has been used in a viral marketing campaign for the new film, The Last Exorcism (2010). The campaign is sure to bring a measure of sick satisfaction to those who have dared enter the world of ChatRoulette recently. The Webcam chat service has a reputation for consisting mostly of boys and men looking for women. That is at least a small part of why the campaign on Chat Roulette works.

Videos are making the rounds of young male Chat Rouletters talking with a pretty girl who starts to take off her top. Before any real skin is revealed, her eyes suddenly roll back into her head, her skin turns sallow and blood gushes out of her evil eyes.

In another version of the viral “trailer” or “Interactive teaser”, she breaks her own neck. That pretty girl is possessed by the devil and happens to be the star of a new horror movie. The URL address for the movie’s website flashes across the screen as her chat victims stare on with horror and disbelief. Way to ruin the mood, marketers.

Is this a case of sexual schadenfreude or is it just a fun Internet prank? I leave it up to you to decide and comment on this idea.
